林凡 is currently leading the entire Special Company, along with over two hundred mules and horses. These animals are carrying the weapons and ammunition that his team will need for future battles.

If it wasn't absolutely necessary, Lin Fan wouldn't abandon these supplies.

With these mules and horses, the Special Company can carry more than twice the ammunition.

For transporting supplies, professional mules and horses are far superior to soldiers.

Calculating his current assets, the gold, silver, and banknotes aren't particularly useful at the moment.

In Lin Fan's view, his company can simply seize any needed supplies from the Japanese troops, making money temporarily unnecessary.

Weapons, ammunition, and food supplies are also sufficient.

Heavy artillery, tanks, and airplanes are desirable, but Lin Fan isn't aiming for the stars just yet.

Even if he had such equipment now, he wouldn't be able to protect it in the Japanese-occupied territory.

From the moment he started replacing all of his team's weapons with Japanese ones, Lin Fan had the idea of adopting a standard Japanese organizational structure, creating a clever disguise.

The Special Company has only one hundred and thirty people. Considering the current reality of the Special Company, it would be best to organize it as a transport unit.

Lin Fan assigned himself the role of a lieutenant as the captain of this transport unit, ensuring that no one else in the company could hold a higher rank.

He personally inspected the uniforms of all one hundred and thirty men, emphasizing the importance of soldiers being aware of their roles.

Japanese officers' and soldiers' uniforms are different, and their swords are also distinct.

A lieutenant certainly couldn't carry a major's sword. As for a general's sword?

Lin Fan admitted that he hadn't captured one yet.

Liu Laopao was very unhappy when Lin Fan asked him to put away the captured major's sword.

This major's sword was something he had captured himself and was his pride.

He had been treasuring it these past few days.

Lin Fan smiled and said, "This isn't asking you to hand in the sword, just to put it away.

Keep it safe, and after this mission is over, you can use whichever sword you want."

Lin Fan said seriously, "We need to impersonate a Japanese transport unit, so we need to look like one.

We are operating right under the noses of the Japanese.

This time is different from the last time, when we slipped away from under the Japanese noses at night.

This time, we will be walking boldly past the Japanese in broad daylight, even traveling alongside them.

Therefore, we need to ensure that every detail we can think of is one hundred percent secure.

Any carelessness will not only harm ourselves but also endanger all one hundred and thirty people in our company.

Do you understand?"

"Understood!" The soldiers of the Special Company replied in unison in the evening glow.

Lin Fan said to Ji Wudi and Ji Jiahen, "You need to cut your hair. There are no female soldiers in the Japanese army.

You only have two options now: one is to cut your hair, bind your breasts, and pretend to be men;

the other is to wear ordinary people's clothes and become spoils of war for the team.

But if you are spoils of war, and a Japanese officer of higher rank than me wants to take you away, we will have to take action."

After pausing, Lin Fan said with a smile, "You two look like this, so the possibility of being taken away is very high."

The soldiers of the entire company laughed.

The beauty of these two sisters was well known to the soldiers of the entire Special Company.

Ji Wudi blushed and said, "We'll cut our hair!"

Lin Fan praised, "Good! Since you're cutting it anyway, cut it as short as mine. When fighting, the enemy won't be able to grab your hair to control you.

That's the advantage.

All of you should get your hair cut as short as possible.

Don't throw the hair away randomly, collect it together, dig a pit, and bury it.

Disguise the surface so that people can't see through it at a glance."

Feng Junya asked strangely, "Company Commander! Is there any special significance to cutting the hair and burying it in the soil?"

His words represented the thoughts of many soldiers, who believed this was some kind of ritual.

Lin Fan smiled and said, "What special significance is there? I just don't want people to know that a large group of people cut their hair here.

If the Japanese find traces of a large group of us staying here, they will only know that we stayed here.

I don't want them to know that we all cut our hair.

We must try to hide any traces at any time.

Only if we remain forever anonymous will the Japanese never find us.

The enemy doesn't know what we look like.

They don't even know what kind of people they are looking for.

Like last night, when we attacked the Japanese airport, what could they do?

They could only fly around in the sky like headless flies."

The soldiers of the entire company laughed again. Since setting off on the night of the thirtieth, they had been living a life of reversed day and night for two consecutive days.

Now, the company commander repeatedly made everyone laugh, and the soldiers' morale was high.

The fatigue of continuous combat seemed less tiring.

The soldiers looked at the planes still circling in the distance. After noon, the planes overhead didn't come as frequently as they had in the morning.

Perhaps these Japanese pilots were tired after searching all morning!

The soldiers of the Special Company knew that they would be walking at night again tonight.

This was the company commander's favorite thing to do, and now the soldiers of the Special Company also liked this kind of life.

Traveling at night, avoiding the Japanese!

Attacking at night, exploiting strengths and avoiding weaknesses, leaving the Japanese disoriented.

Most importantly, every time they saw so many Japanese corpses, the soldiers thought of the difficulty they had in fighting the Japanese a few months ago.

Without comparison, there is no excitement.

Follow the company commander, and there's no need to worry about fighting!

No soldier can refuse a victory!

Lin Fan instructed, "Go and get your hair cut as I said earlier."

Ji Wudi said with some difficulty, "There are no scissors!"

She had just run out, really wanting to cut her long hair according to Lin Fan's requirements.

Only when they were really about to cut their hair did they realize that there were no scissors.

Lin Fan smiled and handed over the command knife he wore around his waist: "Use this!"

The soldiers of the entire company laughed again.

Ji Wudi looked at the long command knife with embarrassment and became even more embarrassed: "I'm afraid of cutting my hand."

Lin Fan strode over and said, "I'll help you!"

Ji Wudi first sat down on a stone. Lin Fan stood behind her and said in a low voice, "This is also my first time, please bear with it!"

Looking at Ji Wudi's head of long hair, so black and shiny, he couldn't help but say, "Your hair is really good!

But don't worry, after we drive away the Japanese, it will grow back in less than a year."

First, he coiled her long hair into a circle, then straightened it with one hand and wielded the command knife with the other.

Lin Fan's hand kept straightening the hair on Ji Wudi's scalp, making it stand up as much as possible, and his other hand kept cutting.

It really looked like mowing grass.

In the end, he cut the girl's head of black hair into uneven short hair.

Fortunately, Lin Fan had tied Ji Wudi's hair together beforehand, so after cutting it, it was still a smooth strand of long hair.

Looking at her hair, which had become like this, Ji Wudi's eyes were a little red.

A head of black hair had turned into short hair that stuck to her scalp like a dog had gnawed it.

It would be a lie to say she wasn't sad.

After thinking about it, Lin Fan said in a low voice, "If you can't bear to part with it, keep it. Remember this day.

In order to fight the Japanese, Ji Wudi cut her hair to show her determination."

Ji Wudi, who was just about to cry, suddenly smiled through her tears.

Lin Fan quickly said, "Now you put on your helmet, and you'll be similar to everyone else."

The officers and soldiers who had been standing not far away watching Lin Fan's performance all burst into laughter.

Ji Wudi knew that even if she cut her long hair, there was still a big difference between her and a man.

After Ji Jiahen also had Lin Fan "cut" her hair, the two sisters ran to the back to bind their breasts.

Lin Fan said to the other soldiers, "Come! Come! Come! Who else wants me to do it?

Don't run, everyone has to get their hair cut.

My skills have been tested."

Looking at the Ji sisters who had already bound their breasts and walked out, Lin Fan still felt dissatisfied.

Girls are still girls. Even if they cut their hair and bind their breasts, it is still easy to see through.

After thinking about it, he picked up a long strip-shaped package: "Tie it inside your clothes around your waist."

Ji Wudi understood what Lin Fan meant. Their waists were too thin, making it easy for people to recognize them.

And even if they bound their breasts, it was still unnatural.

Seeing her waist slightly bulging out, Lin Fan smiled and said, "That's good. A fat belly is good.

That way, you can loosen the breast binding a little."

Ji Wudi's face turned red again: "This company commander seems to know everything."

She had indeed tied it a bit tight in order to make her chest flatter, making her feel quite uncomfortable.

She didn't know how the company commander could tell.

When she and her sister appeared in front of everyone again, if you didn't look at their faces, you really couldn't tell they were girls.

Lin Fan looked at the two girls' fair faces and thought again.

He said to Ji Wudi, "Find some ash and smear it on your face. That'll be perfect.

You two sisters have too fair skin.

Remember to smear some ash on your neck, hands, and feet all the way to the joints.

You must remember:

Details determine success or failure!"

"Details determine success or failure!" Ji Wudi couldn't help but repeat.

In the entire team, Lin Fan and the three Ji siblings wore officer's uniforms.

Officer's uniforms are yellower than soldiers' uniforms, and the fabric is completely different.

Everyone else wore Japanese soldier uniforms.

If they encountered a Japanese team on the road, Lin Fan would handle everything. If any Japanese wanted to talk to the soldiers, the three Ji sisters would come forward.

They would come forward and scold the soldiers of the Special Company loudly in Japanese, not allowing them to speak.

This was to avoid the possibility of being exposed due to language barriers.

As for any Japanese who inquired about news from them, everything would be pushed to Lin Fan.

Lin Fan had prepared the precautions before departure.

They would be walking a night road tonight, but Lin Fan didn't plan to travel the entire night.

Lin Fan planned to walk a section tonight and then another section in the afternoon tomorrow.

He hoped to arrive at Jiangwan Airport smoothly.

He waited until night fell before arranging for the company to make a fire and cook.

The mule and horse legs that were cut down last night could finally be eaten by all the soldiers in the company.

After the entire company had a hot meal and rested for half an hour, they took the company back along the road they had taken on the night of the thirtieth.

It was just that today they were going back.

It was easier to walk the road back after having walked it once before.

When Lin Fan and his company were approaching Zhenru along the road in the dark, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Although they hadn't encountered a single person along the way, everyone was still nervous.

They were very nervous because during the day, they had seen so many Japanese reconnaissance planes flying in the sky.

For so long, they had thought that there would be as many Japanese on the ground as there were planes in the sky.

They didn't expect that they still hadn't encountered a single living person along the way tonight. Da Feng Novel Website

Although tonight was only three days apart from the time they came out of the Four Banks Warehouse, they had already been walking night roads for a long time.

These days, the Special Company had been marching every night.

Everyone was already familiar with walking night roads and didn't have the fearful mood they had during the first day of marching.

But the rule of not talking or making noise during marching was still in effect.

It was just that now their team had a group of mules and horses, so the movements of the entire company were much louder than before.

On the first night of walking the night road, they were afraid that even the sound of their own footsteps and their own heartbeats would startle the Japanese who were dozing not far away.

Today, they were afraid that the footsteps of these mules and horses would startle the Japanese.

Although they hadn't encountered a single Japanese along the way.

Tonight, Lin Fan was still scouting the road ahead. Although there was no light at all ahead, he still carefully felt his way forward.

When Lin Fan entered Zhenru Town, he discovered that there were three military vehicles parked in the town.

Where there are vehicles, there must be people.

Now was not the time to look for the Japanese, but the time to make the Special Company behind him stop advancing temporarily.

Lin Fan quietly retreated and told them about the situation he had scouted ahead.

Hearing that there were three Japanese cars ahead, the squad leaders of the Special Company immediately became excited: We are going to kill the Japanese!

Whatever they were going to do next, the first thing was to keep the team far away.

The team retreated a thousand meters before stopping.

Not only were the soldiers of the Special Company interested in fighting the Japanese, but Lin Fan was also very interested in the Japanese stationed in this place.

When he entered the town just now, Lin Fan didn't even find a Japanese sentry.

Just now, he was almost about to enter those three cars to take a look.

After thinking about it slightly: "Squad One and Squad Two, follow me.

The remaining Squads Three and Four will set up a position three hundred meters outside the town, taking care not to leave any traces.

The remaining squads will prepare for two possibilities: if there are many Japanese in the town, retreat immediately.

If there are not many Japanese, prepare to attack.

Now I'll go in and scout the situation, and I'll come back later to make a plan."

All the plans Lin Fan was making now were in case of an accident. If he angered a large Japanese force again this time, then he should retreat as soon as possible!

Taking the soldiers from two squads, when they returned to Zhenru Town, the entire town was as silent as if there was no one there.

They kept walking until they reached the middle of the town before they found three cars parked on the side of the road.

Lin Fan had Chen Sichuan's Squad One provide cover, and he took Liu Laopao's Squad Two to feel their way up.

He carefully felt his way to the side of the car and listened carefully: he couldn't hear any movement inside the car.

Then he lifted the thick canvas and entered the carriage.

Today was the day when the moon took a month's rest, and it was already pitch black outside.

It was even darker in the carriage, and you couldn't even see your fingers.

Lin Fan took out a flashlight as if it were a treasure and turned it on for a year: This carriage was full of rows of wooden boxes.

The wooden boxes were painted with a large skull and two bones.

Generally speaking, this kind of thing is a danger sign.

Lin Fan gently opened a wooden box and recognized it at a glance: the warheads of these shells were dyed red, these were Japanese poison gas shells.

Specifically, these were asphyxiating gas cylinders, fired by mortars or grenade launchers.

These shells were completely configured according to his company's needs!

No wonder there weren't many of them here, and there were those skulls painted on the outside.

Looking at these poison gas shells that could be launched with grenade launchers and mortars, Lin Fan almost laughed out loud.

This battle tonight must be fought no matter what.

If the Japanese sent up their own weapons and didn't let them try them out, then he would be too sorry for these Japanese.

Lin Fan felt his way to the second car and continued to check. Inside were gas masks.

This was understandable: poison gas shells were only known to heaven whether they were useful or not.

After firing, whichever way the wind blew would be unlucky.

To prepare for the worst, gas masks were a necessity.

It seemed that the Japanese had equipped both spears and shields. Not all of their teams were equipped with this kind of poison gas shell.

Similarly, gas masks were not a necessary item for every soldier.

The third car was full of dry food and canned food, which were all good things.

Liu Laopao's squad had quietly scouted the surrounding area.

There were no traces of Japanese or Japanese sentries in the surrounding houses.

Now only this large house where the three cars were parked had not been searched.

Lin Fan had Wu Xiaobao quietly retreat, and all the mules and horses were tied up on the spot.

He brought in everyone from the entire Special Company.

He prepared machine guns and mortars.

Since they had encountered a small team of Japanese here, they couldn't not eat the food that was delivered to their mouths.

At the same time, he ordered Squad One to set up a machine gun position in the house across the street to block the gate of this house.

Today, he must not let the Japanese rush out of the gate no matter what.

At the same time, Lin Fan also ordered Liu Laopao to first distribute the gas masks in the second car, so that every soldier could wear one.

After the later squads of the Special Company came up, they must issue gas masks to everyone.

At the same time, they had to teach them how to use them.

After telling Liu Laopao, Lin Fan quietly walked around this large house. This was really a large house.

He had to go in and scout the actual situation first, so that he could make a plan!

When Lin Fan climbed over the back and went in, he roughly estimated that this house covered at least ten acres.

Fortunately, there was no one in the backyard, which was good news.

Lin Fan kept feeling his way to the front yard before he heard snores, snoring, and every sound was audible.

He quietly looked around the front yard and saw three houses, a courtyard-like building.

It was divided into the main room and the side rooms on the left and right sides. It could be heard that all the sounds were coming from these houses.

It seemed that these Japanese were all resting in this front yard.

Feeling that he had finished scouting, Lin Fan climbed over the courtyard wall from the front yard and went out.
